horn not working...
Posted: Thu Dec 29, 2016 6:30 pm
so i have sorted all electrical gremlins except this one!
when i press the horn the relay clicks but no sound.
if i put negative and live directly to horn it works and honks so thats fine!
fuse is fine, but if i remove it relay won't click so assume that works
assume relay works as it clicks.
so the fault must be between the relay and horn.
the horn has a brown wire and a black with yellow lines. i have replaced both ends with new terminals.
i assume (and maybe wrong) that the brown is earth and black/yellow is the switched live triggered by the relay
i cannot get continuity between the brown and earth
i cannot get continuity between the black/yellow and the relay terminals.
its like there is a plug somewhere that needs plugging back in
any ideas? the horn stopped working 5 years ago....so may or may not be due to me messing about in the engine recently
